Community Recognition Statement - Killarney Heights High School Boys Soccer Team

I congratulate the Killarney Heights High School boys soccer team, who recently won the 2024 Bill Turner Cup. The team triumphed 3-0 over Queensland's Corinda State High School in an epic grand final match. The Bill Turner Cup and Bill Turner Trophy are highly esteemed annual competitions between approximately 850 high schools across New South Wales, Queensland—those pesky Queenslanders—Victoria and the Australian Capital Territory.

Killarney Heights High School is the first comprehensive public school to have won the cup since 2002. What a phenomenal effort by those students. I especially pass on my compliments to the school and the boys' parents for dedicating their time and energy to help the team get over the line and achieve such an impressive goal. I congratulate the team on an outstanding accomplishment. All those training sessions and the time spent travelling to and from games have absolutely been worth it. They have made their families, their school and their entire local community very proud. Love your work!
